Re: claim on estate in Venezuela
You need a lawyer in Venezuela to handle it for you. This can be tricky. If you have someone you can comepletely trust in Venezuela, have them deal with the Venezuelan lawyer in person. Otherwise, you should try to find a lawyer with ties to a U.S. law firm, so that you have an attorney here supervise the Venezuelan attorney.
